Isotope-shift spectroscopy of the ${^1}S_0 \rightarrow {^3}P_1$ and ${^1}S_0 \rightarrow {^3}P_0$ transitions in strontium (1907.06746v2)

Abstract: Isotope shift spectroscopy with narrow optical transitions provides a benchmark for atomic structure calculations and has also been proposed as a way to constrain theories predicting physics beyond the Standard Model. Here, we have measured frequency shifts of the ${^1}S_0 \rightarrow {^3}P_1$ and ${^1}S_0 \rightarrow {^3}P_0$ transitions between all stable isotopes of strontium relative to ${^{88}}$Sr. This includes the first reported measurements of the ${^1}S_0 \rightarrow {^3}P_0$ isotope shift of ${^{88}}$Sr-${^{86}}$Sr and ${^{88}}$Sr-${^{84}}$Sr. Using the isotope shift measurements of the two transitions, a King plot analysis is performed. These results, combined with other recent isotope shift measurements in other atomic systems, will help refine atomic structure calculations and theoretical predictions for new physics.
